Proposal to insert provisions on software identification and software updates into UN R13, UN R13-H, UN R79, UN R89, UN R130, UN R131, UN R152, UN R155, UN R156, UN R157, UN R171, UN R175, and UN R178 by adding definitions referencing Consolidated Resolution R.E.3 Annex 7, requiring manufacturers to provide Technical Services with information on hardware and software influencing performance, permitting vehicle manufacturers to apply for new approvals differentiating software versions for registered versus new vehicles, clarifying that production discontinuation does not apply when manufacturers seek approval extensions for software updates of registered vehicles, and amending communication forms to include software identification numbers and related information.

Proposal to amend UN R13, 13-H, 79, 89, 130, 131, 139, 140, 152, 155, 156, 157, 171, 175, and 178 by introducing provisions on software identification and software updates. Amendments add new paragraphs referring to Software Identification Number definitions in Consolidated Resolution R.E.3, require manufacturers to provide Technical Services with information on hardware and software influencing performance, permit vehicle manufacturers to apply for new approvals differentiating software versions for registered versus new vehicles while avoiding test duplication, and modify production discontinuation provisions to exclude cases where manufacturers seek approval extensions for software updates of registered vehicles.

Proposal to clarify that the Regulation does not apply to vehicles of categories X and Y, add an alternative approval pathway for certain vehicles using UN R152 requirements, allow continued extension of approvals for 12 months, amend paragraph 10 of Annex 1, and revise Annex 2 (approval mark arrangements).

Proposal to clarify requirements in the scope requesting for reciprocal recognition with UN Regulation No. 152 (Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS) for M1 and N1 vehicles).

Proposal to clarify the type-approval process concerning the reciprocal recognition of approvals to UN R131 and UN R152 (i.e., the conditions under which Contracting Parties applying both regulations are required to accept approvals under either regulation as equally valid for vehicles of category M₂ and for vehicles of category M₃/N₂ with a maximum weight below or equal to 8t and equipped with hydraulic braking).

Proposal to clarify requirements in the scope requesting for reciprocal recognition with UN R152 (Advanced Emergency Braking System (AEBS) for M1 and N1 vehicles).

This paper seeks to clarify the expected approval process to be utilized by Contracting Parties concerning UN Regulation No. 131 which requires Contracting Parties applying UN R131 and UN R152 to recognise approvals to either Regulation as equally valid for vehicles of category M₂ and for those of category M₃/N₂ with a maximum weight below or equal to 8t and equipped with a hydraulic braking system.

Proposal to increase the potential speed reduction during the collision warning phase and clarify the interpretation of “engine start/run cycle”.

Proposal to align provisions with corresponding provisions of UN R152 and to clarify the interpretation of the provisions on system robustness when applied to heavy duty vehicles.

Proposal to increase the potential speed reduction during the collision warning phase and clarify the interpretation of “engine start/run cycle” pursuant to GRVA discussions during the 14th session.

Revised text provided by the GRVA secretariat pursuant to discussions during the 14th session.

Proposal for a new UN Regulation for the type approval of automatic emergency braking systems designed to protect vulnerable road users from collisions with heavy vehicles travelling at low speeds. The purpose is to enable a cross-reference in the new UN Regulation on commercial vehicle direct vision to allow for alternative solutions and performance criteria for vehicles equipped with this “urban emergency braking system” capability.
